Those who know us personally can attest to the fact that we’ve always believed our missions in life were to change the world and make it a better place.

As lofty a goal as that is, it isn’t exactly practical seeing as we’ve never actually had a specific plan. Where would one even begin?

Every time I get overwhelmed by the uncertainty of this challenge, I remember what my mother always says: Start small. Make an impact on one person’s life and continue from there.

Today’s mantra is an ode to that lesson from my (very very wise) mother. You can’t enact change, even in just one person’s life, unless you are in a good place. Sometimes we all need a reminder to not fear, and welcome change within ourselves. Only then will we see the change we dream about in the world.
